Definitions for the ACTION logical model.

Guidance on how to interpret the contents of this table can be foundhere

0. ACTION
Definition

Used to record a clinical action that has been performed, which may have been ad hoc, or due to the execution of an Activity in an Instruction workflow. Every Action corresponds to a careflow step of some kind or another.


Base definition for all types defined in FHIR type system.

ShortUsed to record a clinical action that has been performedBase for all types and resources
Comments

An ENTRY is also the minimal unit of information any query should return, since a whole ENTRY (including subparts) records spatial structure, timing information, and contextual information, as well as the subject and generator of the information.

4. ACTION.archetype-node-id
